Clouds cannot travel south southwest.
I am going to boycott southwest until they allow clouds to fly south
Last Night's workout
I did sprints, a few super sets, and burpees. Then I went and babysat three kids and we played don’t spill the beans. Let’s just say I wasn’t the only one stinking up the place.

The Cranberries have a new album coming out? →
thrueyesofarunner:
These guys shouldn’t hang their head too low if for some reason this album doesn’t do well. They will always be known for their Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We? album and providing a name for a certain kind of fart…ya know, the ones that “Linger”? I’d say that’s a pretty successful career.
I hope this means a tour…

Snot rockets are highly discouraged.
Never thought of it that way….
Saturday conversation
A: “do you have family in Canada?”
Me : “No”
A: “oh, you’ve just been talking a lot about it. The Raptors, the Blue Jays, the grizzlies… So I just thought maybe….
Me: “yeah, well Toronto is a pretty nice place. I won’t even start on the Grey Cup”
I also mentioned the Expos, Maple Leafs, and Canadiens… So I guess he...

MTV's Made: Triathlete
He’s using a kayak. I’ve never heard of that, but that sounds pretty awesome. It would give me a good excuse to buy a kayak.
Interview
2.5 hour interview
2 hour drive home
I came out ahead, but wasn’t really wowed by the company. I’ll have to think about it for awhile when I’ve relaxed from cursing all the SUVs that were crawling in the snow.
Here goes nothing

Never have I been offered cookies whilst buying running kit. That’s excellent!
It was a first to be sure. I even was told to take the last of the good kind! That’s what makes the local running store great but it’s sometimes tough to compete with way cheaper shoes online when you know what you...

Beard
I have an interview set up for Friday. I was reading the application and it says they have a no facial hair policy. This upset me because I’ve grown attached to my beard and I keep it well groomed.

The work around for that is really too easy. I didn’t even need to use Wikipedia I just went to see if that was true.
rfgr26 replied to your post: New shoes
My guy at fleet feet knows me and my shoes (which just so happen to be New Balance). Another sign?
Yes! Maybe I shouldn’t switch!
New shoes
I went to go buy new shoes yesterday. The sales girl remembered me and knew exactly what I had come for. “You’re lucky,” she told me, “we just got our shipment in today.” Sadly, I must have a very common or uncommon size (I can’t decide), as they were out of my size. She ordered them from the store a few towns over and will let me know when they are in. As I was...
